During the 15-year lifetime of a truck, the total cost of ownership is lowest for battery electric trucks, followed by natural gas and diesel powertrains across light, medium, and heavy duty segments. As the truck gets older, maintenance cost increases with decrease in mileage, resulting in increasing total cost of ownership (TCO) per mile. Miles t...

GHG emission regulations are ever strengthening in North America, Europe, and China. Climate change concerns among the public is especially propelling the automotive industry to reduce carbon footprint. Countries are looking for options to improve air quality in their communities and to contribute to mitigation of global climate change through elec...

Key Issues Addressed

OEMs in the electric truck space are currently pursuing two types of platforms: one based on the internal combustion engine (ICE) platform and the other on a dedicated electric platform. Established OEMs are primarily pursuing the former, while most new-age pure-play EV start-ups prefer the latter; however, established OEMs are also simultaneously ...

Tightening emissions regulations, the Clean Vehicles Directive, and government subsidies increasingly drive European bus operators to purchase electric buses for their fleets. However, putting more electric buses on the road requires sufficient charging infrastructure. Most electric fleets operating in Europe use only depot charging or a combinatio...

As the North American transportation and mobility space transitions toward electrification during the next decade, new opportunities and greater demand for greener powertrain alternatives will surface. The biggest opportunities lie in battery electric technology to expedite the adoption of cleaner and more sustainable last-mile mobility. Many new p...

The rising demand for cleaner vehicles to mitigate the effects of climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions pushes governments at federal and state levels and city municipals in North America and Europe to move quickly toward policies favoring electric vehicle (EV) adoptions. Major European cities are forecast to ban diesel vehicle entry ...

Economic recovery post the pandemic, increased demand for freight, and replacement of aging truck fleets will all provide a boost to commercial vehicle (CV) sales in 2021. The shift in last mile delivery will be the most significant trend impacted by COVID-19, resulting in the emergence of tailored last mile delivery solutions that address dynamic ...
